Project description:We performed whole genome gene expression microarrays on short-term cultures of mammary tumors deriving from diagnostic Tru-cut procedures of 16 patients in order to evaluate transcriptional response to the retinoid. Tissue slices were challenged with vehicle (DMSO) or ATRA 0.1åµm for 48 hours. The panel consisted of 11 luminal (7xLumA / 4xLumB) and 5 triple negative (TN) primary tumors. All the LumA and LumB tumors were characterized by >70% ER+ cells.

Project description:Breast cancers lacking receptors for estrogen, progesterone or HER2 on their cell surface are called triple-negative breast cancers (TNBCs). TNBCs account for ~15-20% of all invasive breast cancers and do not benefit from anti-hormonal or anti-HER2 treatments. Although patients with TNBC can initially respond to chemotherapy, they do have worse overall prognosis compared to other breast cancer subtypes. Unfortunately, TNBCs lack clear targetable ‘driver’ oncogenes. Thus, there is an unmet need for strategies to improve the therapeutic options for these patients. We used microarrays to assess differences in gene expression in triple-negative breast cancer cells in response to the platinum-based chemotherapeutic agent cisplatin. The purpose was to find drug induced changes in gene expression level that could differentiate cisplatin sensitive from cisplatin resistant TNBC cell lines.

Project description:To define transcriptional dependencies of TNBCs, we identified transcription factors highly and specifically expressed in primary TNBCs and tested their requirement for cell growth in a panel of breast cancer cell lines. We found that EN1 is overexpressed in TNBCs and its downregulation preferentially and significantly reduces cellular viability and tumorigenicity in TNBC cell lines. Based on RNA-seq and ChIPseq we found that EN1 regulates genes involved in angiogenesis, neurogenesis, and axon guidance in breast cancer cells. Higher expression of EN1 correlates with shorter overall survival among TNBC patients and with higher risk of developing brain metastases. Thus, EN1 is a prognostic marker and a therapeutic target in this particularly lethal subset of TNBCs.

Project description:Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the subtype of breast cancer most lacking in efficient treatment options. Although many TNBCs show remarkable responses to carboplatin-based chemotherapy, they often develop resistance over time. With increasing use of carboplatin in clinics, there is a pressing need to understand mechanisms causing carboplatin resistance and identify the vulnerabilities of carboplatin-resistant tumors. We generated carboplatin-resistance models based on the TNBC cell line MDA-MB-468 and patient derived xenograft (PDX) models of TNBCs. By combining the results of mass spectrometry-based proteome profiling and a kinome RNA interference screen, we assessed the molecular changes and vulnerabilities of carboplatin-resistant TNBCs. Using pharmacological inhibition of the identified targets, we validated the dependencies of carboplatin-resistant cells in vitro and in PDX models. We found that carboplatin resistance in TNBC is accompanied by drastic proteome rewiring. Carboplatin-induced metabolism alterations and upregulation of anti-oxidative response keep low levels of DNA damage and support cell replication in the presence of carboplatin. Carboplatin-resistant cells also exhibited longer mitosis due to dysregulation of mitotic checkpoint. Whereas the components of the mitotic checkpoints, AURKA and BUB1, are essential for the viability of carboplatin-resistant cells, the checkpoint kinases CHEK1 and WEE1 are indispensable for survival of carboplatin-treated resistant cells. We confirmed that pharmacological inhibition of CHEK1 by prexasertib in the presence of carboplatin is well tolerated by mice and suppresses the growth of carboplatin-resistant TNBC xenografts. Abrogation of the mitotic checkpoint re-sensitizes carboplatin-resistant TNBCs to carboplatin. CHEK1 inhibition represents a potential strategy for the treatment of carboplatin-resistant TNBCs.

Project description:The aggressive triple negative breast cancers (TNBCs), which lack estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), comprise a high-risk subset of human breast cancers which remain poorly characterized and lack effective treatments. While meta-analyses have recently suggested the complexity of these tumors, no robust phenotypes have been defined. We identified four distinct subtypes through gene expression analyses of 198 TNBCs (84 Discovery, 114 Validation). We then classified 221 publically available TNBCs profiled on the same mRNA expression array. All three sets supported stratification of tumors by cell cycle (Subtype 1 Luminal – FOXA1, LUM), DNA repair (Subtype 2, Mesenchymal – ADIPOQ, MES), downregulated immunological (Subtype 3, Basal-Like – SOX10/8, BL), and upregulated immunological (Subtype 4, Basal Immune – STAT1, BI) signaling pathways. Additional classified data sets demonstrate significantly lower risk of relapse and death with BI tumors, and highest risk with BL tumors, even after correction with known risk factors. DNA copy number profiling of our primary study set produced optimal differentiation of the LUM subtype from the remaining tumors, and drove expression of FGFR2 and CDK1 in BL and BI subtypes. Subtype-specific targets include MUC1 in LUM tumors, CTLA4 in BI tumors, and a potential dependence of MES tumors on NTRK2, DDR2, PDGFRA, TEK, and ADRB2, which, upon validation, could enable targeted treatment with tyrosine-kinase inhibitors and beta-blockers. These findings further define TNBCs and provide the rationale for studies targeting agents against these tumor subtypes, thereby enabling a higher potential for preventive efficacy in patients with TNBC.

Project description:This ER+ patient dataset was used to retrieve gene expression values for the PIK3CA, PIK3CB, and PIK3CD genes. Patient data was separated into two groups for two separate analyses to determine statistical differences between means of the PIK3 genes between 1) LumA and LumB patients, and 2) PIK3CA mutant and wildtype patients.

Project description:Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in women worldwide, and is classified in multiple subtypes, including the so called triple-negative BC (TNBC). This is characterized by lack of estrogen receptor alpha (ERα), progesterone receptor (PR) and epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2/neu), that represent common targets for BC treatment. Their absence limits the number of therapies that may be applied for TNBC treatment, suggesting the need to identify novel therapeutic targets against this disease. Several studies reported that the beta ER subtype (ERβ) is expressed in a sizeable fraction of TNBCs where its presence correlates with improved patient outcome. We evaluated ERβ expression in TNBC tissues by immunohistochemistry using two validated antibodies, demonstrating presence of this protein in 28% of samples. To investigate, in this context, the role of this estrogen receptor in TNBC biology, ERβ-expressing cell lines, representing different TNBC subtypes, were generated. Cellular and functional assays confirmed the antiproliferative activity of ERβ in TNBCs. Interaction proteomics revealed in BC nuclei the presence of several protein complexes associated with this receptor involved in chromatin remodeling, miRNA maturation and mRNA transcription. Transcriptome analyses pointed out tumor subtype-specific signaling pathways deregulation. Interestingly, among these the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway was commonly downregulated in all cell lines tested. Global analyses of ERβ binding to the genome showed its recruitment to regulatory sites of Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Protein 1 (SREBP1), indicating a direct regulation of this pathway by the receptor. These findings suggest that drugs targeting components of cholesterol biosynthesis pathway may be new potential therapeutic options for TNBC treatment.
